NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
Uniprot Description
PEX5: Binds to the C-terminal PTS1-type tripeptide peroxisomal targeting signal (SKL-type) and plays an essential role in peroxisomal protein import. Defects in PEX5 are a cause of adrenoleukodystrophy neonatal (NALD). NALD is a peroxisome biogenesis disorder (PBD) characterized by the accumulation of very long- chain fatty acids, adrenal insufficiency and mental retardation. Inheritance is autosomal recessive. Defects in PEX5 are a cause of Zellweger syndrome (ZWS). ZWS is a fatal peroxisome biogenesis disorder characterized by dysmorphic facial features, hepatomegaly, ocular abnormalities, renal cysts, hearing impairment, profound psychomotor retardation, severe hypotonia and neonatal seizures. Death occurs within the first year of life. Defects in PEX5 may be a cause of infantile Refsum disease (IRD). IRD is a mild peroxisome biogenesis disorder (PBD). Clinical features include early onset, mental retardation, minor facial dysmorphism, retinopathy, sensorineural hearing deficit, hepatomegaly, osteoporosis, failure to thrive, and hypocholesterolemia. The biochemical abnormalities include accumulation of phytanic acid, very long chain fatty acids (VLCFA), di- and trihydroxycholestanoic acid and pipecolic acid. Belongs to the peroxisomal targeting signal receptor family. 4 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.
Protein type: Membrane protein, integral; Receptor, protein translocating

Product Notes
The Rat PEX5 pex5 (Catalog #AAA9318487) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA9318487 ELISA Kit recognizes Rat PEX5. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "peroxisomal biogenesis factor 5, ELISA Kit" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
